Day 80 Cebu City, Cebu

Today was the final day of Sinulog, closing with the annual procession. A statue of baby Jesus is carried in by boat then walked to a church called the Basilica retracing the steps of Magellan. Once at the church, a reenactment of Philippine Christianization takes place and the rest of the day people walk the same journey while carrying their own statues of baby Jesus. I walked most of it with my cousins and Dad before we retreated back to the hotel due to the heat. Anyway, here's a picture of the procession we joined.
